I searced, didn't find much. I'm considering getting it. How is the install? Does it work as good as OEM? Does it look decent? 200 bucks ain't bad IMO.

So am I gonna have to buy this and test it out? No reviews on here I saw. I need an excuse to pull the car apart anyway, the PO wasn't very nice to it IMO.

cruise control takes out all the enjoyment out of driving an evo, spend your money on something better like a power mod.

oh yea,, an evo is just a blast to drive for 8 hours straight on a flat road with no curves.

That's a Rostra Controls kit. They are pretty straight forward. However if you purchase the components seperately, you may get a better looking control stick, or you may be able to integrate it better with your controls

I was good after I got used to it, my daily driver was a 72 bug so the difference in speed was substantial. I looked down to see 120 a week after I got it

haha I think 120 is a little too fast without realizing it


20,000 miles in 7 months w/o cruise control

Cruise control should be in every car not as an option
